The city is trying to preserve this old-world feel. This picture was taken at another guesthouse a friend brought me to.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/farm9.staticflickr.com\/8362\/8260693040_7aec17aaf9.jpg\" alt=\"118\" width=\"500\" height=\"374\" \/><br \/>\nHave a notebook handy when travelling in Taiwan as you can collect stamps (aka chops) of places you go to.

The facades of many buildings along this street have become art canvasses for local artists. Definitely worth having a look. This particular building houses a bar and restaurant also called Blueprint.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/farm9.staticflickr.com\/8354\/8260732664_c1a0684b61.jpg\" alt=\"188\" width=\"500\" height=\"374\" \/><br \/>\nFreshly baked traditional pastries<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/farm9.staticflickr.com\/8355\/8260732030_5ec1ffb5dc.jpg\" alt=\"191\" width=\"500\" height=\"374\" \/><br \/>\nTaiwan style non-fried spring rolls (\u6f64\u9905), which is somewhat similar to the &#8216;popiah&#8217; in Singapore. The ingredients used are different though. For one, they use sugar instead of sweet sauce, and they have no cooked radish.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/farm9.staticflickr.com\/8349\/8259653681_16f81719eb.jpg\" alt=\"248\" width=\"374\" height=\"500\" \/><br \/>\nArtwork along Haian Road<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/farm9.staticflickr.com\/8338\/8260735498_fbb1d9c7e2.jpg\" alt=\"175\" width=\"500\" height=\"374\" \/><br \/>\nInstallation along Haian Road<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/farm9.staticflickr.com\/8477\/8259650719_ce67c3c940.jpg\" alt=\"262\" width=\"500\" height=\"374\" \/><br \/>\nShennong Street is a small street along Haian Road. It&#8217;s a historical street with several art galleries, handcraft shops and bars.
